The best restaurants serving British food in South Hams South West

Emma provided a FABULOUS spread for 120 people following a funeral at Stoke Gabriel church. Everyone was catered for and the food was exceptional, most notably the crab cakes, samosas and scones, with jam and cream of course. Aunt and uncle have lived in the village for more than 50 years and have dined at Emma’s many times, always speaking MOST highly of the restaurant, food and Emma herself. Thank you!

What a fabulous evening! Great food, superb service and lovely wine. The concept of sitting down together sharing food with other guests just works. We will be back!

Really lovely little cafe on the top of the cliff. Had seen reviews and thought would stop by for a takeaway lunch to go and work remotely. Turned up and place was busy understandably - so sat outside and the views were so lovely I stayed and worked whilst eating a beautiful sandwich and fries. Wonderfully presented even to takeaway, salad coleslaw, crisps and lovely hot fresh fries. Definitely would go again.

We visited early on a Friday evening, the pub was fairly busy and there were a number of people eating. The menu offered had a good spread of tastes at very reasonable prices. We opted for steak and kidney pudding with chips , peas and lashings of tasty gravy. It was delicious . A big shout out for all the staff but specifically the young man who served our table with a big smile asking what condiments we would like. We would certainly return and I would point out the food was really good value. We had no room for pudding.

Very clean, organised barn stop offering a good selection of cakes and snacks. Also a great variety of drink choices. Clean and tidy tables and toilets. All offered on an honesty basis. I hope people respect this trust and pay for a lovely place to stop and refuel.

There's so much on offer - everything is top quality and there's a massive variety of different foods. We shop there instead of supermarkets and particularly love the hand-crafted sourdough and the organically grown vegetables and fruit. You can also get freshly made-to-order sandwiches and fabulous coffee. Then there's the deli-counter - so much to choose from and everything at its peak quality and freshness. Store cupboard and dried foods, herbs, spices, great coffees, local dairy produce. The owner is just delightful and unstinting in his excellent customer service.

Great wagyu burgers whatever the time of day! Fantastic friendly service by someone so enthusiastic about burgers. Not normally a burger fan but these... other worldly. I am yet to try the Halloumi burgers but I'm sure they are also awesome.

Just had a delivery of smeatons smokehouse half rack of ribs and a big apple burger with extra cheddar and bacon !! Absolutely amazing !! The meat of the ribs just fell off the bone 🤤🤤

This is a charming little cafe, tucked away behind the Old Market, well worth tracking down. Seats around ten inside and another handful outside, overlooking the little square. Excellent coffee, great bruschetta on sourdough, local cakes and toasted sandwiches. We tried the Gruyere, ham and Dijon mustard toastie, which was excellent. Fresh croissants and home-made cakes, too. Friendly, personal service.

Very friendly car staff I'm very quick service and nice food

We arrived in Dartmouth for a weeks holiday and after reading the reviews thought Bushell’s Upper Deck sounded great so we walked down to give it a go. It’s a pop up restaurant and it was its last night of the summer. They welcomed us, explained as it was their last night there was a limited menu. We had a super meal, starters of squid and garlic flatbread, followed by seafood risotto and American pizza, finished off with tiramisu and ice cream. Fabulous food, great service, very friendly and welcoming and fabulous views. We certainly struck lucky! Thank you!

Had a smashing meal. Great service and food was excellent. It’s a cosy and warm place to eat with plenty of space, good accoustics and comfy seats. Food was great with a relatively small choice of dishes but all of which sounded delicious. The vegetarian options were well thought through and appreciated. Both the Sea bass and the Duck were also good portions and both delicious and nourishing. If you get window tables then you have a nice view but we were a last minute booking and so the last table in the house - a little more tucked away. Overall we had a lovely night and look forward to returning in the future.

Best meal we've had in ages, and some of the best chips potentially ever. Highly recommend for meat eaters and veggies

Would absolutely recommend in a heartbeat. Quintessentially English hotel with impeccable service and the staff very friendly. The whole experience was worth every one of those 5 stars. The view from our room was magnificent and would go again and again and again.

A real caring customer focussed time was had. Lovely food, breakfast and evening meal. I will be going back when in Devon again.
